We have noted that the photons don’t interact with other photons electrostatically but can interact with gluons. Shouldgravitonsself-interact? Explain.
In the following exercises, two protons are smashed together in an attempt to convert kinetic energy into mass and new particles. Indicate whether the proposed reaction is possible. If not, indicate which rules are violated. Consider only those for charge, angular momentum, and baryon number If the reaction is possible, calculate the minimum kinetic energy required of the colliding protons.
Sketch the Feynman diagram if the proposed decay is possible.
Trying to pull two quarks apart would produce more quarks in groups or hadrons. Suppose that when the separation reaches 1 fm ( the approximate radius of a nucleon), the lightest hadron a is created.
(a) Roughly how much force is involved?
(b) Compare this with the electrostatic force between two fundamentalcharges the same distance apart. Does your results agree with the strengths in table 12.1 ?
